How to control food guilt

I have this thing called food guilt. I feel guilty if I eat a certain food that wasn't healthy, or didnt taste good. Somethings I'll eat something that was "okay" standards like a tuna sandwich or a PBnJ, but then notice someone like my sister eating something like a pizza or sushi. I have this feeling of guilt and be thinking "man, that looked so cool I wished I ate that instead". And I feel like I should be eating the same foods that my sister eats just for the sake of not looking different. How do I get over this?

If you exercise a lot, you don't need to have this food guilt, you should be pretty much able to eat what you want "within reason" and not be worrying about small amounts of calories

I don’t even know. I would just eat the pizza.

I dont think thats guilt.. i think thats something else entirely .. a misunderstanding of the word on your part.. more like lunch envy

To be honest, I'm not sure we eat differently in the first place. Different lifestyles i guess?

We live together.

Also, I have a huge appetite and I get very upset that no matter how much I eat I still feel hungry. I'm jealous because my sister doesn't even much and she doesn't complain about hunger and exclaims that she gets full even though she doesn't eat much. Me on the other hand, am ALWAYS hungry no matter how much I eat! I feel like I need to tie myself to a chair and put duct tape on my mouth so that I'm not tempted to go the fridge for a snack.

Just work out and use the calories, then it doesn't matter and theres no guilt.
